Air-fryer “Pizza” Crumpets

The photos don’t really do these justice, so don’t let them put you off! These are ready after ten minutes in the air-fryer. The perfect substantial snack, quick lunch or kids tea!

We used some funky heart shaped crumpets but regular ones will be perfect too. These went down very well with my two boys. Here’s two different toppings to play with…

Ingredients:

Crumpets

Pesto

Tomato purée

Tomato ketchup

Grated cheese

Step 1: If going for a tomato base, combine a tablespoon each of tomato purée and ketchup into a smooth paste. Next spread this over the holey surface of your crumpets (this is enough for two or three crumpets). If opting for pesto then spread a teaspoon of pesto over the holey top of each crumpet.

Step 2: Sprinkle each liberally with grated cheese. We went for an extra mature cheddar.

Step 3: Pre-heat your air-fryer to 180c. When ready, carefully transfer the crumpets, cheese side up, and cook for ten minutes. Serve immediately.

Halloumi Fries

Serves 2-3

I’ve wanted to try these for a while (I know I’m late to the party!) and they turned out brilliantly. I served them with a minty garlic yoghurt, quick pickled red onion, salad and flat breads. An excellent wrap filling or dunked in the yoghurt as a dip.

Ingredients:

One block of halloumi cut into ‘chips’ aim for three chips per slice.

2 tbsp flour (corn flour works well if gluten-free is required)

Pinch of ground white pepper

1 tsp dried oregano

1 tsp paprika

Step 1: Mix the dry ingredients together on a plate and then toss the halloumi carefully in it so all the halloumi is coated.

Step 2: Shake off the excess flour (you can do this by shaking them in a sieve). You could spritz with a little oil if you like.

Step 3: Place the halloumi in an air fryer at 193c for 10 minutes. Turn half way through. Serve.
